"Oh yes. That would be very nice." I heard my mother say. Who was she talking to? I wondered. I pressed my ear harder to the wall trying to make out her next words. "How about tomorrow at noon?" I heard. So is someone coming at noon? I wondered. I decided to give it a rest. I backed away from the solid wall, and laid down on my bed, rubbing my sore ear. I started to drift off... "Ev... Evelynn!" yelled a voice at my door. I jumped out of bed in surprise. I stumbled over to the door, and opened it. My brother Vincent was waiting there for me. "What?" I asked. "Who is mum talking to?" he asked me. "I don't know. I was trying to find out too." I said. "Now if you don't mind... I am going to take a nap. " And with that, I closed the door. I flopped back to the comfort of my bed. I laid there now thinking about my family. Vincent is already 16... I'm 18... Vincent is dating my best friend Sofia... who is 17. I really need to get a boyfriend. And then before I knew it I had fallen asleep.

I looked around. I saw it. A beautiful flower. 5 perfect petals, and just the right shade of  red, fading into pink from the middle out. I glided over to the flower and picked it. I turned around, only to find Vincent with a little mustache, down on one knee, holding a ring behind his back. Sofia standing teary-eyed in front of him. "Will you marry me?" I heard him ask. "Yes" I heard Sofia respond. Then I saw myself... weird. I walked over and hugged Sofia and Vincent. Sofia was now not only my best friend, but my sister in-law too! Then we walked off together, I'm guessing to plan the wedding. Then I turned around to see Vincent and-

I was awakened by my 10 year old sister singing Chasing the Sun by Sara Bareilles. I looked at my alarm clock. It was 11:00. Mum's visitor will be here in an hour. I though to myself as I headed for the bathroom. I washed my face and applied a light layer of makeup. I turned to my dresser now, I pulled out a navy blue T-shirt that says Pottermore in yellow writing. I put that on, and a pair of gray yoga pants. I slipped on a pair of socks and headed out for some breakfast. After I finished my breakfast it was 12:02. They should be here any seco- I was cut off mid thought by the door bell. I fumbled around trying to find something to do. I pulled out my phone and checked Twitter. I looked up at the door, to see my mum blocking the view. Who is it... who is it? I asked myself until finally my mum moved. My body went numb and I think I died. In the door. Was Daniel Radcliffe. I tried to hide my Pottermore T-shirt but it was no use. I strained my ears to hear what my mum was saying. "Daniel honey, why don't you find Vincent, or if you like, I think Evelynn is going fishing. If you don't want to do any of that... I hope you find something to do. If you don't you can go to Hannah... have fun." my mum joked. I completely forgot about going fishing. I jumped up and grabbed the worms off the counter. I busied myself with that when Dan walked in with my mum and his mum. "Evy hon, why don't you get Vince's rod out of the garage and take Dan fishing with you." I had no chance to back out if this one. "Okay." I said. I might as well make a good impression. The two mums left to chat, and I looked at Dan. "Hi, I'm Evelynn, only please call me Eva or Ev." I said, as I stuck out my hand. "Okay, hi Eva... I'm Dan." He said looking at my hand. He then took it, and shook it. I grabbed my tackle box, and rod, and made my way to the door. Dan followed gingerly, and I said "The rod is in the garage. If you can open it, I'll run in and get it." and he opened the garage. I ran in and got the rod. And we were off.

I know it is a bit boring now... but keep reading. It gets pretty good. I am thinking about actually making Vincent propose... maybe. Hope you like the story so far!
